Too many teachers hit by layoffs

This article states that technology and health-care occupations will have an increase in salary and more job openings. This is all great news, but what happened to the educational system? What's going to happen to teachers?

In recent years, teachers, or anyone who works in the education department, have been given the "pink slip" and are having a hard time trying to find employment. Yes, having job opportunities and an increase in salary for technology and health care careers are great, but teachers are the ones who make sure people have the proper knowledge to do those jobs. Teachers are getting laid off due to lack of funding for schools, but if this progresses in the future there will barely be any teachers to teach students.

The Department of Education needs to find a better way to have a budget instead of letting go hardworking teachers. This issue cannot be ignored.
